A little bit girly...

I made this for a friends mum for mothers day, I thoroughly enjoyed making it and I know she loved it :-))

I started with an A5 card blank and covered it with a piece of patterned Hunky Dory Adorable Scorable card stock.

Next I added a layer of a subtle gold pearl card. Then 2 paper doilies. The journal paper and sentiment are from the Vintage Notes collection from Docrafts. I really like these, very vintage.

The dress form is a Kanban topper as are the die cut flowers, I just loved all the colours. I think they all work really well together.

Then next came the bracelet. I knew I wanted to make something to go on the card, and I was going to make a bag charm and clip it on. But once I got the beads out I just couldn't resist this pretty little pink and pearl number.

I secured it to the card just using a few glue dots, so it was easy to remove when the card was given.

And what card and gift would be complete without a pretty matching box lol.
